Associated Environmental Systems (AES) is back in International Battery Seminar this week, March 2026, in Orlando, this time at the stunning new venue, Rosen Shingle Creek Hotel. Known as the longest-running annual battery industry event in the world, the International Battery Seminar continues to bring together the brightest minds and most advanced technologies in energy storage.
Now spanning over 40 years, the conference draws thousands of attendees and features hundreds of exhibitors and booths, making it a global hub for innovation across the battery ecosystem, from materials and manufacturing to testing and safety.
AES is proud to have its full sales team on-site at this year’s International Battery Seminar, ready to connect with customers, partners, and industry peers throughout the week. Representing a wide range of expertise across battery testing applications, system design, and customer support, the team is available to discuss your testing challenges and explore tailored solutions.
Attending this year’s event:
A key highlight of the week is Nicholas DiCeglie returning to the stage for his second consecutive year, presenting “Increasing Success and Safety in Battery Testing” on the Battery Safety Track reinforcing AES’s ongoing commitment to advancing safe and effective battery testing practices.
At Booth 515, AES is showcasing advanced battery testing configurations designed to meet the evolving demands of the industry—particularly as cell formats, power requirements, and safety expectations continue to scale.
The ATPHEAVY platform remains a central focus this year, with multiple configurations on display tailored to real-world testing applications:
Across each configuration, AES emphasizes:
These systems are engineered to support common battery industry applications, from cylindrical and prismatic cells to pouch cell testing—ensuring flexibility as testing requirements evolve.
The International Battery Seminar also hosts a highly competitive Best of Show Award, recognizing the most innovative technologies on display across the battery ecosystem.
AES is proud to have been named a Best of Show Finalist for its now patented ATPHEAVY battery testing solution—an achievement that highlights the platform’s impact on advancing battery testing safety, performance, and scalability.
Engineered for high-amperage applications, ATPHEAVY supports large-format and high-power battery testing with up to 1,200A continuous or pulse. Designed for both R&D and production environments, the system integrates seamlessly with AES battery test chambers while maintaining a strong focus on safety, flexibility, and adaptability across all cell form factors and chemistries.
This year’s move to Rosen Shingle Creek reflects the continued growth of the battery industry itself. With expanded exhibition space, increased attendance, and deeper technical programming, the event underscores just how rapidly battery innovation is accelerating.
For AES, it’s an opportunity to:
The 2026 International Battery Seminar was a huge success for AES, giving us the opportunity to connect with customers, showcase our ATPHEAVY and other battery testing solutions, and highlight our ongoing commitment to safety and innovation. Following this event, AES will continue engaging with the industry at several upcoming trade shows throughout the year:
We look forward to sharing more innovations, meeting new industry partners, and supporting the evolving needs of battery testing at each of these events.
